False assumptions and accusations can harm a relationship. If someone in a relationship makes an assumption that isn't true, they may bring it up with their friend, and the friend will disagree. This will cause a fight and might end up harming the relationship. Or the person who makes an assumption may take action without telling, and end up hurting someone. This is the case with Gene and Finny.

Assumptions can really harm relationships. This is because people, much like Gene, can sometimes assume that that person they are close to is doing something bad/against them. Then, again much like Gene, those assumptions can bring bad actions that really affect the doer. This, after they find out their assumption was wrong, severs the relationship.

These assumptions are harmful because he is thinking about it and making it sense horrible then what it is and he should just talk to finny and not let these things hold him back. I think that he should just not care that is a great rule "just don't care"

Assumptions can harm relationships by creating distrust. They will make you think something that isn't true about the other person. It can make the assumptionist feel guilt about thinking that way about the other person. It can make the person get mad like when Gene was mad enough to make Finny fall out of the tree.

Assumptions can harm relationships by making one person or both mad and jealous. It made Gene think bad about Finny. Assumptions can ruin friendships and cause harm to anyone.

Assumptions can ruin friendships because if you don't actually ask your friends you will never know for certain what they are thinking or why they are acting the way they do. If your friend does something and you read into it or take it the wrong way you may think that they have alternative motives because you never asked them. Never assume, always get your facts straight before you make a decision.

First of all I am not good at judging relationships. It can do a lot of harm. If you make the wrong choice your relationship can take the wrong road and it will hit a brick road. If you make the right choice it might not be that bad. Just stay away from assumptions it is for the bad

I agree with you Rachel. Before people start making assumptions and doing bad actions towards that person, they need to think it through with themselves, or just talk to the person they are making assumptions about.

I agree, Cal. And those assumptionists' (nice word by the way) assumptions can snowball. It can cause misunderstandings and fights and really affect both the person who was assumed to be one way AND the 'assumptionist'.

Assumptions can harm relationships, by thinking things are true when they are not. Also for assuming that Finny is just good at sports, that he doesn't have to try. And for Finny assuming that Gene doesn't have to try for school work he is just good at it. This can harm relationships by trying to be better then them or thinking things of them that aren't true.

Assumptions can really damage a relationship. Accusing a friend of doing something that they really didn't do. You should always talk to the friend before you accuse a friend of something that they didn't do. If you don't it will cause a big fight between the two friend which you don't want. So just talk to your friend instead of assuming your friend.

Assumptions can harm relationships because if a friend is always assuming and not talking to their friend about the situation it can turn their relationship in a bad direction. Friends might think things that are not true so they need to talk to each other to get the truth. People need to get everything straight before assuming something that might be totally wrong.

Assumptions can harm relationships because some people make decisions about each other that can hurt their feelings. Gene does make an assumption about what Finny is thinking and that could hurt their relationships that they have with each other. If Finny finds out that Gene is making an assumption about him, that would probably end their friendship that they would have.

That Finny is sabotaging him to get worse grades. But Finny is trying to have fun and not sabotaging Gene. Gene thought that Finny was hurting his grades. But when they had the fight Gene realized that Finny wasn't trying to hurt his grades. Finny told Gene that he thought that Gene didn't need to study for tests. He thought that it came naturally to Gene. But it is getting better until Finny fell out of the tree.

Assumptions can very easily harm relationships of any kind , Gene really doesn't have proof to his assumptions, and it makes him jealous of finny and even kind of hate him because of his assumptions.
For example don't call someone a liar if you where no their when something happened... you cant just assume!

I agree with you Drew. Friends do need to talk and not assume something about their friend. It will just make things worse if friends don't talk and just assume.
